A solo show about finance, physics and the bets that don't pay off

The Quant

So you studied hard at school, got into a good university, studied some more, graduated (with honours) and, finally, landed a job at the world’s second biggest bank.

But the hard work isn’t over. In fact, it’s only just begun. Before you’re allowed on the trading floor you’ll need a crash course in financial risk.

Luckily The Quant is here to help.

He’ll show you how to make big bets with big money to bring in big returns and earn big bonuses.

And the downside? He knows all about that too.

Written and performed by Jamie Griffiths, The Quant is a whirlwind tour of finance, physics and the psychology of risk.

The Quant premiered at the Camden People’s Theatre in 2013. It played at the Old Red Lion Theatre in London in June 2014 before a 23-show run at the Hill Street Solo Theatre as part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Caught the 7:30 show on Saturday with my wife, who did Economics at LSE. Well-written and well-performed, and delivers a tense, engaging hour of timely theatre. Still wondering how the coin tosses were set up, but some things are best left a mystery. Bravo!
